May 17. 1962, Parmlngdale played htat to a wonderful choral group
£rom Broome Tecfanlcal Cointnudty Cellege.
Aside from President Laffiln's Inauguraticm. this ccmcert was the
first maj<Mr event to be held in our new field house.
Under the directimi of Charles M. Greene, the choral group present-ed
an enlightftning program for us. The entire grcH^), ccmsisting of
about one hundred students was divided into smaller greups. The tech
Tone Masters, an all male chorus, sang both secular and popular music.
They sang sudi songs as Adoramus Te Criste by Palestrina and Glory
to God by Qregor as well as many songs from My Fair Lady._Tbe
CoDege Choir, consisting of male and some female singers presented
superbly such songs as No Man is an Island and the Happy Wandertr.
Selections were also presented by the Marksmen, an all male trio and
the Campus Co-Eds. The program came to a close after die full chorus
sang old favorites such as You'll Never Walk Alone and Stormy Weather.
Broome Tech is a two year Qollege similar to ours. Their primary
emphasis of the student i s maintaining good scholarship. Hewever, they
take pride in their extra-curricular activities, especially their chorus.
The preseittation of this ccmcert now gives our schMl an added incentive
to organize our own chorus.
